Backup.
ya, that was my guess, but I just read through Backup and cant find anything that states an actual preference.  Do you have a quote?

Quote
I could hear other soft sounds in the background, and another voice. A woman. Maybe two. Most of my family isn’t what you’d call particular, when it comes to feeding on mortals.

Closest I could find to a quote about her preferences. But then, I only said Backup since it's the only thing in Side Jobs that could have the information about Lara's tastes.

Yeah, but Germans and Hungarians don't pull people's theories out of their sockets when they're challenged.  Ducks are known to do that.

I'd love to see Coyote and Raven show up, but they are used heavily by Charles de Lint, so Jim may want to avoid them.

She was very interested in Ramirez. I think she is an omnivore ;D

I think it's more of a thing of virgins tasting better then those who are not ;) (good luck getting that reference)
yes, I am male and I engage in the activity known as shipping. I just wish harry some relief from time to time. He's getting tortured enough as it is...

I think, therefore I am. I am therefore people must believe I exist. Ergo: I think people believe in me ;)

Ok, she is a figure from more contemporary mythology, but how about Frau Blücher? In Young Frankenstein we never find out why at the mention of her name horses get frightened and sometimes thunder claps. Perhaps other animals also make scared noises around the mention of her name?

I suspect that she could be a BC Elder.

But sadly, I suppose, copyright issues might prevent seeing her in the DFs.
Last night I had a vision. The World in flames. Terror and death spreading across the globe in an unstoppable wave, destroying anything resembling order or civilization. At the center of it – I saw Mister. Sitting there grooming himself, looking disinterested.

Since we are talking about MYTHOLOGICAL FIGURES, I'd LOVE to see Ms Duck in the series.

I'm not going to share my vision at this time.

At times I wish I had a clone, but then I realize, I could never live with that a-hole.

Hey I was a convert a long time ago when you took a sabbatical.  I'd heard about your Harry/Mavra stories and LOVED them.

But if you cannot poke fun at those you worship, what's the point?
